THE LETTERS OF RALPH VAUGHAN WILLIAMS

13 Cheyne Walk
SW3

[1920]

Dear Miss Charrington
I am sending you 1 or 2 things which may be useful for your play.¹
(1) The “Agnus Dei” from Missa Regina for the part of the Mass
(2) The “Requiem” or “Dies Irae” from the Missa pro defunctis for the funeral procession
(3) The ‘In manus tuas’ for the same near the end
(4) The “Nocte surgentes’ for the Knights to sing when they ride off
Yrs sincerely
R Vaughan Williams
